"Episodes" - FYC Clip
: I'd argue almost any show on television is more worthy of a nomination than "The Big Bang Theory," but that would take up my whole paragraph. And I need that paragraph to remind people that "Episodes" exists. Matt LeBlanc deserved that Golden Globe he won in 2012 for the self-aware Showtime series that's now surpassed its initial appeal as "the show where Joey swears and talks about being Joey." In Season 3, it's even managed to make its two leads (Stephen Mangin and Tamsin Grieg are more leads than LeBlanc) likable, after two seasons of off-putting Brit banter (they sounded so whiny). With solid support from veteran character actors like John Pankow, Kathleen Rose Perkins, and Mircea Monroe, "Episodes" is actually one of the best ensemble comedies on television, despite being sold as a one-man show. LeBlanc's best role post-"Friends" (one of a few, granted) earned him his second Emmy nomination for the show last year, when it also received a nod for writing. It's a long shot, but here's hoping it can ascend the ranks to best comedy series, as well.
